Farwell Middle School Students recently finished a unit on Stop Motion Animation with REMC 5 Director Joe Trommater. Students used laptops that REMC has configured to run video and audio applications to create original works. You can see the videos they made here: https://tinyurl.com/FMSClay2026
For anyone attending MACUL next week, Joe will be presenting how he does Stop Motion with local teachers. See the second picture for details! #CGRESD #REMC5 #ourstory

Leaders from Clare, Gladwin, and Midland counties met recently to learn how to teach students and teachers to use AI safely and appropriately. Aaron Baughman from Michigan Virtual, the presenter, put it best when he said that if we don't teach students how to use it appropriately, they will only get AI candy, and not their AI vegetables! #CGRESD #ourstory
